NVIDIA announces Quad core Tegra processor at MWC, will be available in tablets in August and phones in Christmas 2011

If you didn’t think that smartphones and tablets were ridiculously fast enough, along comes NVIDIA and their insanely fast Quad core Tegra processors just unveiled at the Mobile World Congress at Barcelona, Spain. Not only did NVIDIA announce the existence of the new processor, it had a live demo unit to show off. In a blog post at the official NVIDIA site, Project Kal-El (the codename of the project) was detailed in full, including benchmark scores showing off the impressive power of the new tech. The demo included a 1440p video running on a 2560×1600 panel enabling mobile devices to output to the highest resolution monitors or tablets equipped with a 10.1-inch display with 300 DPI. You can read the whole post and details about it at the official NVIDIA blog below.

WHAT’S INSIDE

There’s barely two months left to get your holiday gifts in order. With the rush of the season—including deadline buzzer beaters for company shutdowns, more vehicle standstills, greater mall foot traffic, and fleeting daylight—it can be daunting to decide what to give you and yours. Don’t worry. As always, we’ve got your back with our November Holiday Wishlist issue.

We’ve got the scene’s latest toys in our Parade and Wishlist section, all sure to put a smile on the faces of techies and non-techies alike. If you’re looking for something that’s been under the microscope, hop on over to the GadgetsLab and see whether we’d recommend the the Intel Core i5-6600, Adata Premier SP550, HP DeskJet Ink Advantage 3776, Lenovo Yoga Book, Philips 246E7, and LG V20 as sock stuffers. If you’re feeling a bit more generous with your gifts, we also reviewed the Honda City 1.5 E CVT Limited Edition and 2015 Yamaha Bolt in our Mobility pages.

But maybe you don’t want to give physical things. Maybe you believe in experiences. Then check out our coverage of Lyon, France; the Azar video chat app; Deus Ex: Mankind Divided; Gears of War 4; The Ransom Collective musicians; and the Sandaya Yakiniku and Guevarra’s restaurants; just to name a few.

And to help sizzle the cold year end breeze, we’ve got the comeback king, Motorola, in our pages, accompanied by the dynamic duo of James Reid and Nadine Lustre. With all the above and more, this is definitely the season to be jolly.
